More information

The first miniature rose reported to have a true “pink” fragrance. Officially the variety is classified as white. In practice, the blooms shift color with conditions and often show a pink tint. Shoots are practically hairless.

When Cinderella was first introduced, it appeared so small that it was placed in a new rose class, the micromini. Flowers are produced almost continuously on a disease-resistant plant. Color varies with weather—pure white in hot conditions and china pink in cold conditions. The blooms have a silky luster. They are carried in long sprays of 5–20. Foliage is small, dark green, and disease resistant; the shoots are smooth and thornless. The plant forms a compact, upright shrub.

Compact miniature suitable for very small spaces. Very small oval, soft pink buds open to densely branched clusters of flowers less than 3 cm in diameter. On first opening the flowers are creamy pink (the pink is especially noticeable in cold weather), and the pink tones gradually fade. Light, spicy fragrance. Cinderella usually begins flowering in early summer and continues until the first frost; this is supported by removing spent blooms and trimming shoots after each flowering flush. Shoots are thornless. The shrub is dense and rounded, 20–30 cm tall and about as wide. Suitable for containers and hanging baskets. Shows strong disease resistance.
